Pet Sitting in Minier

“Andria is such a blessing! She took wonderful care of our fur babies while we were out of town. She’s an effective communicator, always provided us photos, moved our trash bins to the garage, brought in the mail and even helped by putting away our meat delivery as I forgot to reschedule it. She definitely went above and beyond for us and we couldn’t be more appreciative!!! 10/10 would recommend hiring Andria🤗🐕‍🦺🦮”

“Georgia was great during a drop in visit with our fur babes. She was very communicative and helped alleviate any anxiety I had about traveling and out of cell phone range.”

“Mandy has been great! Even our skittish cat and anxious dog took to her quite quickly. She is very accommodating and understanding with schedule changes. She’s highly communicative and very attentive to any details. Her experience with challenging animals is reassuring as well. We will for sure hire Mandy again!”

About: I have had a dog all my life. Growing up we had Boxers. In my adult married life we have had Labrador Retrievers . These dogs have not been dogs but fur kids. I have taken them to obedience classes so I have experience in commands and working with them. I believe that fur kids need plenty of exercise on and off leashes. Dog parks are a good way to socialize them and get in exercise. In the home mind games are fun too. Sniffing out a treat to playing with toys on the floor with them. I love taking pictures and document what we do. You will know what your fur child is doing. I am currently working for home during the week day so being with them during the day works. I am able to take breaks and go on short walks. Play with them in our fenced in yard. I plan on retirement in May so I will be available 24/7, 365 days a year. I am willing to come into your home if you would feel more comfortable. If they come to my home we have a fenced in yard and will be able to play with our 2 fur boys. One is an 8 year old chocolate Labrador and the other is a 5 year old German Shepherd/Great Pyrenees. Both have had other dogs come into the home and stayed with us. They love having visitors. In your home I will attend to their needs as you have outlined.

“Excellent dog watcher!! It was my second time hiring Daniel and was such a comfort to travel while letting my senior dog stay at home. Daniel did great, kept me up to date with pictures and information about my dogs eating and drinking habits. Would definitely recommend if your like me and want your dog to stay in his comfort zone, hiring Daniel to look after your pet.”

About: I've always been the family member my family could call on to take care of their dogs when they were out. I've walked/been walked by an energetic husky, I've looked after a blind/deaf elderly shih tzu, I've spent hours playing with a cuddly golden retriever, and now I want to help take care of your pets. My schedule is fairly free for weekday/weekend care, earlier in the morning would work better for me but if you need me to come over at the evening/night time, I'd be more than happy to do so. My drop-ins involve a quick to-do list to take care of the basics (any food bowl, water, or potty attention), followed by playtime until I can ensure your pet is happy and satisfied. If you'd like me to have some photos of your pet whether I'm doing in home care or taking them for a walk, let me know and if there's an opening, I'll gladly snap a few photos for you on my phone!

“Emily is wonderful! Our cat was originally a stray so she is timid with others but based on the videos I think she is really warming up to Emily! Emily does a great job and we have used her services several times now. It feels so good knowing we can rely on her to check on our cat when we go out of town.”

About: I have a lot of pet care experience and animal care in general! I’ve worked at two zoos and have always been surrounded by furry and scaley critters. I recently just went through the training of my own puppy as well. My schedule is very flexible and I am very willing to work with you! I can visits, but also can do whole days of needed. I have one dog and a fenced yard. I have a cat and a bearded dragon as well. My dog is very well trained, lives to okay, and has never shown aggression to anything.

“Susan has been providing daily drop-in visits since 1/2019. She keeps my 75lb pit/lab active with outdoor play. Susan is loving, loyal & patient. The pics provided with the Rover Card are awesome! I'm thankful to have found Susan.”

“As always Emily is the best! She reads all of our notes and checks in frequently with pictures. She always ask questions if something is unclear and is willing to flex her schedule for additional bookings.”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and started helping with their care at age 10. Though the last 12 years have truly deepened my experience and love for animal care. Currently, I share my home with four cats and a German Shepherd/Husky puppy! Over the years, I’ve had the honor of caring for pets with special needs, both my own and those of friends and loved ones. My puppy and I have completed two 6-week training courses with Canine Initiative – and yes, we still practice those skills daily (with varying levels of success depending on how many squirrels we’ve seen that day). One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for my border collie, Nina, after a serious injury. She needed help walking with a harness, regular cleaning, medications, vet visits, and lots of love. After 2.5 months of dedicated care, she was back on her feet, and we were lucky to share two more wonderful years together. I also cared for her through a late-in-life diabetes diagnosis, which included daily insulin and increased mobility support. I’ve administered medications to dogs including insulin, ear drops, and oral meds, and I’m especially mindful about keeping pets calm and comfortable during care routines. I’m always happy to learn your exact process — whether through an in-person tutorial or a video — to keep your dog’s stress to a minimum. I’m open to caring for dogs with medical or physical needs, with the understanding that for mobility support using a harness, I’m most experienced with dogs 45 lbs. or less. That said, I’m absolutely comfortable walking and caring for dogs over 50 lbs. as long as they are well-mannered on a leash. While I may not be the strongest person physically, I’m confident with larger dogs who don’t pull or lunge too much. If your pup is a gentle giant, we’ll get along just fine on walks! My youngest (age 12) and I work great together playing and giving positive attention to dogs. She has attended most of the dog training classes with me and shown an interest in attending more. If you would prefer myself only, I completely understand! Should your animal need urgent care and I am able to take them to the vet, we are very familiar and close with Morton Animal Hospital and Banfield Pet Hospital. I cannot recommend them enough! If more assistance is needed than the general care/dog walking, I will adjust the rate and will be happy to discuss this with you. Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions! I am currently off for the summer and will have various appointments and activities to do with my children and animals. I am able to adjust my schedule at this time but will let you know if I have anything scheduled during the days needed. I understand sometimes extra or unexpected trips are needed to check on your pet. At this time, I am off for the summer and am able to provide care throughout the day for my own pets. Depending on your dogs activity level, I would prefer to care for your dog at your home due to my dogs young and energetic puppy self, as well as my four indoor cats. Should it work out with bringing your dog to my home and remaining outside with me, I do live on a busy street in town and do experience unsafe, fast driving cars at times (Idlewood). With that said, our yard is completely fenced in, though our back and front fence is 5 ft. in height. Larger, escape artist dogs may have the ability to hop the fence and if that is a concern, I would rather not risk bringing your dog to my home.

About: I've taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! All of my life I've had animals! I love all different types of them! Nothing quite makes me happier than being covered in pet hair and kisses! I currently work a full time job but am available nights and weekends! I'm looking to do something that inspires me in my free time! A house isn't quite home without pets in it! I have three cats that I love with all of my heart! What ever the needs of your pet I can handle!

“My dogs loved Debra. She gave them a lot of love and attention. I loved the pictures and texts after every visit. I would definitely recommend her!”

About: Through out my life I've had several different furry friends (and fish!). I have worked with all kinds of animals from ones that love to run and play to ones that would prefer to lounge around all day! My fur baby, Dodge, is a mix of the two so im sure to cater to each side of him by providing different types of enrichment and trainings for each mood. I am currently a stay at home wife looking to make some pocket money while doing something I love! I'll have plenty of time to look after your lovely animal children! Most of the times, short term stays or quick check-ins work best for me, but I am open to talks regarding longer stays. I am a strong believer in spending as much time with pets as possible, so I plan to enact that with your fur babies as well. I will send you pictures of your fur baby on walks or lounging on the couch with small updates.

About: I grew up on a farm and always had multiple animals my whole life and now that I live on my own nothing has changed and I still love them! I only work a couple days a week and they aren’t long hours so I am available for any scheduling you can throw at me! I can let your animal out in a fenced back yard or I can leash them and walk them so they can do their business. Or if they just need some exercise I can do longer walks, if they just need someone to hang out & feed them i’m available also. Any requests don’t be afraid to ask!

“Cheyenne is amazing- professional, communicative, friendly, and obviously loves animals!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats for 10 plus years. I have lots of personal experience with animals I have had over the years. I also have family and friends who have relied on me to walk, bathe, feed and play with their pets. I am a big animal lover and enjoy spending time with my own pup. I have a German Rottweiler named Atlantis. So I also have experience with dogs over 100lbs. I'm currently in cosmetology school earning my license. I'm in school Tuesday through Friday. I have availability all day Monday, Saturday and Sundays. Tuesday through Friday I would be a available 6pm to 10pm l. I have a nice size yard for your fur baby to play in. A comfy couch for pup snuggles and love. I can crate if that is needed. I will also have a variety of pup toys for inside play, as well as some doggie treats.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, growing up with dogs, cats, birds, and even lizards. My mom was an animal lover, and I’ve followed in her footsteps. I helped my dad with his three cats that my mom used to care for before she passed, driving an hour every week for grooming and bathing (one of them is a bit oversized!). I’d love to care for your beloved pet. Although I can’t have pets of my own due to my wife’s allergies, this makes pet sitting my dream job! I regularly care for my father’s cat, Jack, traveling over an hour each way, so distance is not an issue for me. I work seasonally for a cemetery in Bloomington which leaves me laid off from December 1st to March 1st each year. So I am highly available in that 3 month span, and then on weekends during the rest of the year. I’m here to support you and your beloved pet. I’ve always had a deep love for animals and the people who care for them. When my wife mentioned pet sitting, I was excited to get involved right away. Dogs seem to love me, and cats generally tolerate me—which I think says a lot about my character! I’m reliable, trustworthy, and available when you need me. I’ve been caring for pets since I was young, helping neighbors with feeding, walking, and cleanup. I promise to provide the care and attention your pet deserves and be a great fit for you both!
